First thing in the morning, especially if it is early – and even more especially if it is wintertime, I stand in front of the sink with the cold water running and sike myself into splashing it on my face. I dread it because I am sleepy and just got out of my warm bed, and I know it is going to be freezing cold and take my breath away. But, after that first splash, oh it feels good! Suddenly the ‘sleepiness’ is gone and I am feeling fresh and awake and basically ready to face the day – without sleepy eyes.

It’s a must. I just have to do it!

Which brings me to my Miscellaneous Monday shots; I also feel that I just have to have pictures of my kids, at a young age, eating spaghetti. It seems like that is a classic kid picture. You know, spaghetti all over the face, the hands, etc.   Well, while eating spaghetti a couple of weeks ago I realized I had not yet gotten that shot of Bristol. So of course I grabbed my camera and fixed that

Happy Monday!
